Procedure
I prefer to paint from life, although
I can also work easily from clear digital photographs that can
be downloaded onto the computer. I prefer to take the photographs
myself, but if the client chooses to provide them, it is essential
that they be of high-quality resolution. A portrait from life
requires approximately six sittings that average two to three
hours per sitting. The portrait can be painted in my studio or
at a location of the client’s choice. Together the client
and I will decide upon the size, setting and mood of the painting,
clothing to be worn and accompanying pets* or objects. Before
beginning the painting I will show a sketch to the client for
approval. For those clients who live at a distance from me, I
can photograph the painting at different stages of the process
and send J-Pegs to the client for his or her approval.
